Challahs and Latkes - Stories for Shabbat and Hanukkah
Cindy Rivka Marshall

Storyteller Cindy Rivka Marshall's eagerly-awaited first recording celebrates Jewish, rituals, miracles, and delicacies. During Shabbat, freshly-baked challah provides sweet accompaniment to tales of faith. And at Hanukkah, crisp, fried latkes remind us of the oil which gave Jews light and hope many centuries ago. Children and adults will enjoy these enchanting folktales, all containing the nourishing ingredients for food for the soul: captivating voices, infectious songs, strong characters, all laced with a wonderful sense of humor and awe. Renowned singer/songwriter Victor Cockburn co-produced Challah and Latkes. Accompanying Cindy's rich vocals are Ben Pasamanick on clarinet, Derek Burrows on psaltery and Ken Richmond on violin. In this collection, Cindy tells stories for Shabbat, and weaves tales of Hanukkah. This 70-minute CD is a present to be treasured all year long, and also makes a great holiday gift.

The Eye of the Beholder
Heather Forest

Winner of the Parents' Choice Classic Award and recipient of a 1995 Storytelling World Honor Award, Heather's first tape for adults is a truly magical listening experience. Her versions of "Beauty and the Beast," "Dame Ragnel" and "The Nightingale" speak with clarity and insight on the relativity of perception when it comes to our understanding of beauty, love, grief, and greed. The five stories are told in Heather's musical style that blends poetry, song, and prose.  "If the world of storytelling had an award comparable to the Pulitzer, The Eye of the Beholder could easily be a winner." - Storytelling Magazine
